To My Husband

To my love, Do you remember all of this? A casual night, to party, that ended with a kiss. June 19 two thousand and twelve, the night our very first kiss was held. We continued a friendship, although here and there We would hold hands, look at each other, and stare The love was there, it had been always We were not yet ready, to ditch our single days So we continued on, no rules, no pressure As friends, with some benefits, some would tell ya Nights would start out, with fun in mind By the end of it though, I'd have your hand in mine Very drunken nights, you would proclaim This is my girlfriend, but by morning that would change When we would rise, we would pretend The night was just fun, and I was merely a friend By November twenty thirteen, I had had enough I took a chance, and I called your bluff You didn't say yes, you didn't say no I didn't bring it up again, I just let it go Dec 5, two thousand thirteen We were dates to a party, with a holiday theme It took some time, but you came around Jan 25, you decided to be locked down I tried not giggle, as I thought FINALLY! He does want to spend the rest of his life with me. Days turned to weeks, weeks turned to months, We were head over heels, everyone had a hunch Dec 5, two thousand fourteen You made a proposal, and I agreed March 11, we went downtown to get our paper work started We did not expect to be wed, before we departed We signed the papers right there, that day But I wanted to do it, the old fashioned way So on July 10, among family and friends We shared words and a kiss, once again This time was special, I wore a big poofy dress It was our family and friends, who bore witness I am so happy that you are my king. With love from your wife, your best friend, your queen.
